Chinchorro Beach is one of the most charming destinations in northern Chile. Located in the Arica and Parinacota Region, this beautiful beach surprises visitors with its warm, calm waters, perfect for swimming, practicing water sports, or simply relaxing under the sun. Its long shoreline also invites pleasant walks while taking in the sunset over the Pacific.

Just minutes from downtown Arica, Chinchorro offers more than 10,500 meters of coastline that combines natural beauty with a family-friendly, welcoming atmosphere. One of its biggest attractions is the historic American ship Wateree, whose boilers can still be seen inland after being dragged there by the tsunami that followed the great 1868 earthquake — a detail that adds a touch of history and mystery to this fascinating place.
